Saint Richard Catholic School has been home to all four of my children. Each has received an excellent education in a loving, Catholic environment. Saint Richard School allows students to become their very best and celebrates their gifts. Families of all faith traditions are a part of our school community. Service is an important component as students are prepared not only academically but also to be good citizens. Saint Richard School offers the very best!
